New Jersey Real Estate Brokerage Law covers essentials that attorneys and brokers must understand to navigate the complexities of the practice of real estate brokerage law. New in the 2025 Edition are these recent developments:

  • The Consumer Protection Enhancement Act, effective August 1, 2024, provides protections for consumers and real estate professionals including the creation of designated agency in New Jersey, mandatory seller property condition disclosure statements, defined duties for buyers' agents and sellers' agents that must be in buyer agency and listing agreements, and mandatory notices for buyers at open houses
  • New regulations governing brokers paying LLCs and other entities
  • The effect of the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) 2024 antitrust settlement on MLS's and cooperative compensation
  • Flood notice requirement for tenants and buyers in commercial and residential transactions
  • New Jersey Supreme Court opinion clarifying the classification of real estate salespersons as independent contractors as opposed to employees
  • New Jersey Appellate Division 2024 decision holding that age-restricted communities of 55 and older cannot require owners to be 55 or older

Published in cooperation with New Jersey REALTORS®, the book covers procedural issues, such as licensing and educational requirements, regulations for maintaining offices, and the relationship between brokers and salespersons. It comprehensively lays out all required disclosures by real estate licensees, the Real Estate Commission's requirements on contracts of sale and leases, as well as advertising rules. The book explains prohibited activities for a real estate licensee, including applicable discipline for violating the Real Estate License Act or the Real Estate Commission's implementing regulations.
